Videos (MP4 or Flash) and narrated PowerPoint presentations – each 10-20 minutes long – provide explanations of how SOLs are developed and tested, what recent revisions have been made to the standards, resources available on the VDOE website to support the standards, as well as examples to help define “increased rigor” in the standards and assessments.

All may be viewed online or downloaded for use.

For the PowerPoint presentations, select “Slide Show” view, and they will advance automatically as the narration proceeds.
